  The European production of seaweed, including kelp species, is increasing, but efficient processing schemes for complete biomass valorization are still lacking. In this study, we investigated the effect of combining pulsed electric field (PEF) processing and soaking/blanching treatments (10, 45, and 60 ◦C) on the chemical composition of sugar kelp. Furthermore, we suggest applications for the ...
